The dashboard item Next DC Updates shows a list of the data collections that are expecting new submissions based on the Update frequency defined in the data collection settings.

Items that have a Next Expected Update date that has already passed, are marked in red. You can define a buffer that will be taken into account when adding the alert to a missed update. For example, if an update was done within 5 days before the expected date, then this will trigger the date to be updated to the next one. The buffer is set in the Data Collection basic settings alongside the Update frequency and Frequency start date.
